To keep your thread alive: I've never seen that fly and the only 2 characters I can verify by Ceretti's Tachini Italiana are:
- mid tibia has 2-3 ad
- length of petiole is approx. 2/5 - 1/2 of M between deflection and petiole
Minthoini yes, but I do not know if is enough to identify
Hyperaea femoralis!
